Mine was a little unsettled for 24 hours and fairly gassy but that could just be a coincidence. I think her legs hurt a bit as she cried at nappy changes. She slept a little more but didn’t get a temperature.

We had ours yesterday at 11am and when we came home I fed her (she had only 2oz) and she fall asleep. I thought she will be sleepy but after I fed her at 3pm (less than 3oz) she was unsettled till the evening. When we went upstairs she had 4 oz and fall asleep but not for long and she started moaning really annoying so I took her in bed. Same happened when I fed her at 4am, fell asleep and woke me up in half an hour. She's moaning now again but I hope it will be better today...

Our little girl had hers today, she cried at the injections but was ok afterwards. She had a breastfeed & calpol then a nappy change. She has been asleep for the last 3 hours - hoping she sleeps it off & is ok tomorrow.

My lo was really good when he had his yesterday he fell straight back asleep before we got back to the waiting room. I gave him his Calpol and then we had his 6-8 week check afterwards he was fine then too. Got home and he fed twice and he fell asleep around 4.30pm only waking to feed then going back sleep. Refused a feed at 11 which isn't like him at all. But no temp. Around 1 when oh got home from work I checked his temp again and it was high so I gave another dose of Calpol fed him and he slept then til 5am. Go he slept off and on for 13 hours. And i slept for 2 because i was worried 😂😂He was fine this morning back to his happy smiley self xx

Mine was really bad. She cried her lungs out at the time of the jab and cried uncontrollably afterwards as her legs were so sore. Although she was quite sleepy cos of calpol. But it’s for their own good.

My lo didn’t like the injections but stopped crying pretty quickly afterwards. Nurse said to give him three rounds of Calpol every 4 hrs. He was miserable and slept and cuddled way more than he usually does but no temperature. Then 2hrs after the third dose he suddenly felt really hot and had a high temperature. Called NHS 111 who said I could give him up to 4 doses max in 24hr period and if it went up again to see a pediatrician at the hospital. Luckily after the 4th dose he was fine and the next day was completely back to normal.

Your growing child

7 week old

Your baby has lost his curled up newborn look and is likely to appear steady and alert when held upright. When on his tummy, he may be able to lift his head and chest for short periods, almost as if he's doing mini-press ups. Read More

2 month old, first week

From now on your baby may gain almost 1kg (around 2lb) a month. Your baby's also getting stronger. She still can't hold her head steady, but you might notice her keeping it up for a few seconds at a time. Read More

2 month old, second week

If your baby's sleeping through the night (five or six hours at a stretch), you're one of the lucky few. Most 10-week-old babies still wake up during the night. You’ll probably notice that he stays awake during the day longer too. Read More

2 month old, third week

He's no Fred Astaire yet, but your little one's movements are getting a bit more coordinated. You'll notice that the jerky arm and leg movements of his newborn days have given way to smoother, more circular motions. Read More
